Default yfz450 out ran by a drr 50 in 300 ft drag!!!

my sons drr50 smoke my buddies yfz450 today in a 300ft drag by about 200ft. it was comical my buddy was bragging about his yfz (which was very quick) how it would smoke anything stock for stock. so jokingly i told him i would run him 300ft on my sons drr50. we lined up & leter rip. the yfz blew its engine about 75ft into it. i just laugh at him when i went by him on the 50. bad thing is he just had the cam mod, pipe, 13:1 piston, air filter, & jets done not even a week ago. it was a bad way to win but hey winning is winning lol
